\begin{funcdesc}{float}{x}
Convert a string or a number to floating point. If the argument is a
- string, it must contain a possibly singed decimal or floating point
+ string, it must contain a possibly signed decimal or floating point
number, possibly embedded in whitespace;
this behaves identical to \code{string.atof(\var{x})}.
Otherwise, the argument may be a plain or
\begin{funcdesc}{int}{x}
Convert a string or number to a plain integer. If the argument is a
- string, it must contain a possibly singed decimal number
+ string, it must contain a possibly signed decimal number
representable as a Python integer, possibly embedded in whitespace;
this behaves identical to \code{string.atoi(\var{x})}.
Otherwise, the argument may be a plain or
\begin{funcdesc}{long}{x}
Convert a string or number to a long integer. If the argument is a
- string, it must contain a possibly singed decimal number of
+ string, it must contain a possibly signed decimal number of
arbitrary size, possibly embedded in whitespace;
this behaves identical to \code{string.atol(\var{x})}.
Otherwise, the argument may be a plain or
